Eurozone GDP Surprise Defies Trade Headwinds
The Eurozone economy posted an unexpected acceleration in early 2026, with annualised real GDP growth jumping to 2.1 percent from 0.5 percent. Lucas and Luna unpack the numbers: which sectors drove the rebound, why the strong dollar isn't crushing exports as feared, and whether the World Cup tourism boost or domestic consumption deserves the credit. They also weigh the risks from Trump's new tariff round and surging import costs from China. A focused look at a rare bright spot for continental Europe.
